Here Comes Autumn!

Oooooh I am so excited for this season!! Last year we captured so many phenomenal moments, some of which literally brought tears to my eyes. I think last year was especially wonderful because of the isolated life we were all handed. Everyone was filled with joy after a rejuvenating summer. The appreciation and gratitude for the little things, which many people feel in times like these, is just so heart warming. But every year I am more blown away than the last with the pictures from the autumn rush! And if you have see some of the magic we created last year, then you and I both know that I can’t imagine the lovliness we’ll capture this year. I can’t wait for all the leaves to change colour!

You know how every year I hold a mini session event. Well, I am sending out the announcement to all my subscribers TONIGHT! So if you aren’t already, you should consider signing up for the quarterly newsletter (which actually only gets sent out 2 to 3 times a year). Sign up here: https://www.heatherbays.com/my-newsletter

The Clover Field

If you read both parts of the Isolation series, you may have guessed how we spend this past summer. Well I will tell you…

We had the most glorious summer in the most glorious place after a not-so-glorious year living in a high rise in Toronto with constant on again off again lockdowns. We essentially repeated what we did last summer and drove 25 hours to the Interlake. Only this year we had a more permanent living situation. We lived in a sweet cottage on about 2 acres of land with the sweetest vintage trailer that I used as an office and sometimes a guesthouse! We swam in the lake almost every day and rode horses every week and ate ice cream from our favourite ice cream shop as much as we could! I’d wake up every day and pinch myself just to make sure it was all real. The place belongs to Grandpa James. It was built by his grandfather. His mother Margaret grew up in the house. The house was sitting unused for maaaany many years so he offered this space to us since it’s exactly what we were looking for. It just needed a little TLC. We had so much fun bringing life back to the old place. I felt like we went back in time with the vintage decor. We had arborite tables, original hardwoods, and a retro fridge (that required manual defrosting), and everything in the place was from the 70’s or earlier. Needless to say, I was in heaven. Living in my “Good Place” home. (Have you seen The Good Place?) Anyway, our time there was rather sentimental actually. On so many levels. Which I will absolutely get in to on another day. But today, I wanna talk about The Clover Field.

The Clover Field is what I named the outdoor photography studio that I was able to create on this land. Everything about this space was inspiring. The light was magnificent! The land itself was so pretty and has a sweet nostalgic feeling. A perfect spot for any kind of session. This space provided me with the inspiration to create again after a rather challenging year. Here, scroll down to see some images I took at this beautiful place.

I am very much looking forward to next summer already so I can meet even more people down at The Clover Field. Just like this year, I will take a very limited number of sessions. So contact me if you are interested in booking a session in Manitoba next summer. And consider signing up for my newsletter so you won't only be the first to know of any discounts, mini sessions and pop up events, but you'll also get first dibs at booking them. And guess what?! The timing is perfect because the most popular newsletter of the year will be going out this weekend!
